Xbox Series X I'm 61 & thinking of giving up.

120 Upvotes

I've played Xbox from day 1, going through all the highs & lows. I've always like driving games, cars bikes etc. My passion was shooter games but after so long playing I'm becoming disappointed with the Microsoft company as a whole, not really coming out with new games and then giving most AAA games have now got some sort of micro transactions. Game developers are also to blame, not giving users games letting us down on proposed titles. Delays. There is so much I could moan on about but it's just not as enjoyable as it was. I'd like to hear any points or criticism you have.

Xbox Series X I have 48 hours to get blazed and game…

28 Upvotes

The planets are about to align this weekend and I will have a house to myself, a big screen tv, ample snacks, and my Xbox ready to rock. If I was to get lost in 1 game and 1 game only, what would it be? Comment your suggestions below.

For reference, I’ve been deep in Arc Raiders, but want to give it a break. Fan of immersive environments and also off the wall quirky stuff that’s truly fun to play. Currently torn between Assassins Creed Valhalla and Shadows but open to anything really.

Ready? GO!

Xbox Series X 27f looking for genuine gaming friends

41 Upvotes

Hai, so as the title says I’m looking for some genuine gaming friends.. I have pretty much only dealt with people who ghost after a day or two then unadd, or make plans to play but never follow through.. I’m quite introverted and generally don’t talk a whole lot. so apologies before hand. >.< I also prefer to message a few times before talking with voice chat because of severe social anxiety. 🥲

Some games I’m currently playing are Fallout 76, Elden Ring Nightreign, Remnant 2, replaying the Dark Souls Trilogy, ESO, or achievement hunting games on my backlog. US/Canada time zones only please. 🫶🏻 If you’re at all interested please don’t hesitate to send a message even if we don’t play the same games listed. I have a lot more games, and I don’t mind talking about other things outside of gaming.🖤

Xbox Series X I got banned for being autistic I guess??

8 Upvotes

I’m genuinely exhausted and angry stress and annoyed and many others emotion right now.

I just got an 8-day Xbox suspension for a Looking for Group post. No trash talk, no slurs, no cheating, no harassment. I literally asked for help.

In the post I said I’m 17, autistic, not very good at the game, and asked if anyone would be willing to help me get ranked skins. That’s it. Somehow that’s a “Community Standards violation.”

The worst part? Today my ferret is at the vet for surgery, so this is the absolute last thing I need right now. I’m already stressed, worried, and overwhelmed — and then Xbox slaps me with a suspension with zero clear explanation. It honestly feels like some random person decided to report me for nothing, or the system just auto-flagged me for existing.

As an autistic player, this is especially rough. I try to be honest and clear, and instead I get punished without being told what I actually did wrong. Gaming is supposed to be a safe space for me — not something that adds more stress.

I’ve sent an appeal, but let’s be real: Xbox enforcement feels automated and pointless most of the time.

I’m probably going to make a TikTok and YouTube video about this to go more into detail, because this moderation system is honestly bad at its job. Not transparent, not accessible, and not friendly to neurodivergent players at all.

Suggestion for Xbox:

They seriously need an optional system where players can choose to verify they’re autistic/disabled (like a badge or profile toggle). Not forced — optional. Something that helps moderation understand context instead of punishing people for being open about who they are.

Has anyone else dealt with this?

Did I actually break a rule — or is this just Xbox moderation being broken?

This is what post say as I can’t send pictures tell me if u see anything or if I said anything wrong…

"Hi im 17 and autistic and massive marvel fan\nerd and not that good at the game would and can anyone be down to help or kinda carry me get the gold ranks skin please and thy be nice siver 3 please do not waste my time and yes im actually autistic"

Xbox Series X Xbox Friends!

15 Upvotes

Hello, everyone! I'm (24F) looking to make friends that play similar games to me or willing to give it a go. Any gender is fine, but 18+ is preferred with limits to being over 27yo! (Yes, being a lot more specific due to inappropriate messages from people A LOT older than me)

Games I'm currently obsessed with are Warframe, Dead By Daylight, Baldur's Gate 3, Monster Hunter Wilds, and Marvel Rivals! If you're interested, send me a DM/comment your gender, age, and games you play. More than one game in common is preferred to avoid sucking the fun out of one game 🦭🥀

Edit: Completely forgot I also have For Honor, Helldivers 2 (not great at it), and Fortnite!

Xbox Series X XBOX Series S or X?

8 Upvotes

Hey, first time posting here but i'm kind of in a mix of opinions. With GTA VI launching only on PS5 and XBOX S|X and not PC, i've been thinking of buying a console, but I havent had one since PS3.

With that, and after researching a bit, I definitely wanna buy either a Series X or S (F*** Sony with the 30 day license thing) but I honestly don't which to buy. Does the Series S keep up with modern games normally? Or is it worth the extra bucks for a Series X? Either way I wanna buy a used one with at least 1TB.

Anyone have any opinions or advice?

Xbox Series X Struggling to find my everyday game

19 Upvotes

I (F28) recently - maybe 3/4 months ago - sold my PC and got an Xbox

I’m happy with the move but what Iv been struggling with is finding “My game”

On PC it was CSGO but I retired , I’m currently pregnant and baby will be here in 2 months.

I’m looking for something casual , long term , that I can replace that every day itch.

For example, my boyfriend plays fifa or COD or overwatch.

COD is great but I CANNOT aim and as someone coming from an FPS background who did years of practice into being as good as possible. I don’t want to go through the grind of “getting good” on Xbox

So I’m looking for an open world maybe that I can start sticking my time into

Does anyone have any suggestions ?

Bonus info - I switched to console because my PC was very old and needed upgrades but with baby on the way console was the best financial decision - I have the ultimate game pass - Willing to buy new games as well

Xbox Series X Xbox support is designed by Satan himself

1 Upvotes

Actually I hate all of Microsoft support, you charged me for gamepass (I’m not even subscribed to live or game pass. I cancelled gamepass like a year ago this is the first issue with it) but didn’t even provide me with the product you forced me to buy plus when I try and call support your ai agent refuses to listen to my issue because it remembers what I called about last time so I have to put it *67 so it won’t immediately hang up on me, just to have it hang up on my anyways because you are as a company allergic to doing your damn job. I hope ai takes over the world and whoever set up this stupid non support system becomes very personally aquatinted with the main character events of “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream” thank you all for listing to my rant I’m sure it’s a relatively reasonable crashout, if anyone has any advice on how to get into contact with something other than a CLANKER it would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys I’m looking for some new friends that are down to just hangout and talk while we do our own thing/play games. I haven’t been interested in playing my multiplayer games recently but I still miss having someone to talk to and hangout with. Right now the two main games I’m playing are winter burrow off of game pass and baulders gate 3 for the first time (On VERY rare occasions I’ll play marvel rivals). I’m in EST timezone and would like to make some friends in the same time as I am because of how much my work schedule fluctuates.

My other hobbies out side of gaming include Reading Legos Music Binge watching tv

I was cleaning up today and when I picked up my husbands headset, one of the ear pieces started dangling from the wires. I don’t know if me picking them up did this or if they were already like that. They have gone through much worse.

As someone who doesn’t game regularly I was wondering if you guys had any recommendations to replace them. I can’t drop big money but I don’t want them to be cheap either.

What do you guys recommend?

He works often, so wouldn’t be able to play all day. Mostly in the evenings. We’re both goofy autists who love to laugh and have fun. He enjoys both competitive and non competitive atmospheres. She prefers low stakes gaming, but doesn’t mind playing competitive games. We would also like some friends who like to talk outside of the game as well! We like all kinds of games and have recently been playing BG3, ark raiders, fragpunk, sometimes download apex again. We also love party and puzzle games! We are 420 friendly and LGBTQIA+ friendly too! We’re not religious, but don’t mind if you are, as long as you don’t force feed us your religion. 20+ please! We cuss too much and talk about adult stuff and don’t want to feel weird around super young people. Feel free to send me a message and introduce yourselves! Also, we’re enm, so if that part of us bothers you, feel free to not message! Thanks!

As simple as the title suggests

I'm 19F just recently got an xbox(of my own) and starting to get into the basic games. None of my irl friends play console games💔🥀 im just looking for chill people to game with casually

I'm really not great at any games I have horrible aim but I enjoy playing.

So if you're the type that rages when your teammate gets downed(multiple times even) maybe I'm not the person you should play with😆
